A lipstick is one makeup product that can always be found in a woman's handbag. It is irreplaceable and it has the amazing effect of adding color and life to your aspect and giving a healthy-looking face. The only thing to consider is the color, as this one should flatter your skin complexion. Take a look at the hottest spring/summer 2011 lip makeup trends and choose one that suits you the most.

The famous lipstick is a must-have item for every woman. It
sometimes acts magically changing completely the overall look. When
finding the right lip color you have to pay a lot of attention as
an unflattering shade can turn everything into a disaster. Your
skin complexion and the size of your lips are two main elements for
you to take into consideration when purchasing a lipstick. Then, of
course, there are the main makeup trends that seem to
change every season.

As for the hottest spring/summer 2011 lip makeup trends, colors
vary a lot from nude and soft peachy to extremely bold and vibrant
shades of red, orange and pink. All lipsticks come in a myriad of
different shades suitable for every skin complexion and taste.
Everything stands in what color you choose. Even though for winter
we usually want to add a lip balm or a glittery lip gloss, the new
trends propose daring lip makeup worn with confidence.

“Nude” seems to be the key element when it comes to spring/summer
2011 makeup trends. This is one delicate choice that is applied not
only for the skin and eyes, but for your lips too. Whether you
choose a soft pink or beige, nude means totally natural lips. You
can wear a complete nude makeup or, on the contrary, go for a more
intense and dramatic eye makeup and nude lips. When applying a nude
lip makeup using a peachy or beige color, remember that your lips
should be moisturized in order to look healthy. For this you need
to exfoliate them and apply some lip balm.

Lighter colors work amazing on thinner lips as they make them look
plumper, while darker colors flatter thicker lips, but only if the
shade you choose matches your skin complexion. If you choose a
natural makeup
using light, soft colors, you will look younger as these types of
shades bring out the warmer tones of the skin. Moreover, they are
an amazing choice when aiming to add freshness and health to your
overall appearance.

Fuchsia, orange and pink are some of the hottest colors when it
comes to lip makeup trends for spring/summer 2011. This is that
type of makeup trend that should be worn with extreme
self-confidence by women and girls who feel beautiful and powerful.
These bold colors are the perfect manifest of sophistication and
elegance. Choose vibrant colors for your lips and wear them on a
flawless skin makeup.

Wear a fuchsia or orange lipstick with a light eye makeup using
just a soft eyeshadow and mascara for a matte, fresh look. If you
want to create the illusion of plumper lips, apply some gloss in
the center of the lower lip. For a strong touch, use a matte color
for the eyes too, such as blue or white.

If you want to create the illusion of fuller lips, you can also
make a contour using a pencil and following the natural line of
your lips. Keep the contour harmonious and don't exaggerate. If
what you desire is to accentuate the look, apply a lipstick coat
using a brush, then a gentle touch of powder, and another coat of
lipstick.

Red lips have already become a timeless style and they seem to come
back for spring/summer 2011 among the hottest trends. You can wear
a red lipstick both for the evening, but also for a daytime look.
However, when whishing to wear bold, red lipstick, you shouldn't
overuse the other makeup products as your lips need to stand out.
Foundation, mascara and some blush are enough. Still, if you want
something more dramatic, a black eyeliner is the key.

Avoid red lipstick if you have acne prone skin as you'll only
emphasize the problem. Always choose the right red lipstick shade
based on your skin complexion. You can also try a different
approach such as spotted at Viktor & Rolf with a thick winged
line of white across the lids, no mascara, soft pink blush and red
lipstick. Every woman looks stunning and sexy with red lipstick as
long as she knows what shade is the most flattering for
her.
